When my husband and I drive
through the Netherlands, we often stop at a secondhand shop. I don’t look for
anything specific, but nevertheless, I always step out with something
nice/funny/useful/readable etc. On the picture you can see what I’ve collected
lately: a sampler cross-stitch made in 1980, bobbin lace, a knitting book from
1885 (not an original…), some wool and mohair thread for knitting dolls clothes, an
old kitchen towel, and on top of that a beautiful tiny sewing box. And apart from that several
old sewing and needlework magazines.

Over mij / About me

Ik heet Marjo B-W en ik hou van stof, al vanaf dat ik klein was. Ik maak quilts, borduur soms, maak kleertjes voor de poppen van de kleindochters en hou ook van poppenhuisjes. Hi, I'm Marjo B-W and I live in the Netherlands. I love fabrics and threads, and have done ever since I was a small child. I love to make quilts, but I also like to cross stitch, make clothes for my granddaughters' dolls and I like miniatures.
